Hey its like the first ding u get on your new car, hurts at first but in due time you’ll stop giving a shit.


Unless its a Porsche....don’t ever let there be a scratch on your Porsche.

One thing that I realized soon after buying my Submariner. "If you want to wear it and enjoy it, you are going to have scratches".

I must be a little thick. I'm trying to figure out where the $2k loss came from.

That sucks. :(

That actually doesn’t translate to excellent condition though.

Thats why you don't need to pay the premium for unworn. They are all worn after a few days.

Enjoy it though!
